If you're not hurtling your hardened ego forward in a violent explosion to obliterate any and all enemies in order to overcome the incohesion of your inner feminine void, then you can't rightfully call yourself a fascist.

>Klaus Theweleit, in his study of the psychic structure of fascist soldier males in Germany, has identified a similar impulse to negate sensual pleasure by recourse to violent acts or fantasies. For these men, as for Marinetti, the war figured as the ideal arena in which to experience the relation of body and world. Only in war could they be the source of, or somehow connected to, every explosion, without risking the disintegration of their fragile egos. Apart from war, the soldier males Theweleit analyzed organize their lives on the model of severe military discipline and maintain relationships primarily with other men within a strict hierarchical order. By disciplining the body, rendering it hard and nearly metallic, they create a kind of protective armor designed to shield them from their fear of dissolution. This fear emanates from the sense of an inner void, or lack of psychic coherence, which is then projected outward. Often it takes the threatening form of a miasma associated with both femininity and the unruly proletarian masses.

>The texts Theweleit analyzes frequently describe this miasma as bloody, oozing, a viscous liquid with the power to contaminate, overwhelm, or destroy whatever it comes into contact with. The creation of body armor is designed to render the fascist soldier male resistent to this contagion, but also, and perhaps most importantly, serves to render him impervious to sensual or erotic pleasure. For sexual communion with another implies the breaching of both psychic and corporeal boundaries.

>For the Fascist soldier male, desire may be released only in the moment of destruction or annihilation of the other—the moment of firing a machine gun, throwing a grenade, or dropping a bomb. This outward eruption provides a surfeit of sensations in which the rifleman, for example, imagines himself as a bullet, hurtling through space to penetrate the enemy. He desires, not union with the enemy, but its utter obliteration. As Theweleit explains, he explodes against the enemy, in a movement that allows his body to atomize as it erupts outwards.Yet this seeming disintegration ultimately serves to strengthen his body-ego—like a gun that explodes in a powerful discharge of energy but remains whole. A similar attitude drives many of Marinetti’s corporeal fantasies, revealing a profound desire to experience the body as a ballistic weapon, to render it both an explosive force and impervious to attack. “Let’s Murder the Moonshine” of 1909 proclaims: “It is necessary—do you understand?—necessary for the soul to launch the body in flames, like a fireship, against the enemy, the eternal enemy that we would have to invent if it didn’t exist.” This text continues to describe the “furious” pleasure of war as a form of coitus to which even the feminized, “informe” (miasmic) enemy abandons herself: “See the furious coitus of war, gigantic vulva stirred by the friction of courage, informe vulva that rips itself open the better to offer itself to the terrifying spasm of the next victory! It’s ours, the victory. . .of that I’m sure, because the madmen are already hurling their hearts toward heaven, like bombs!”

Even if I practiced writing 12+ hours a day for years I won't be anywhere near as good as he was at the age of 24

How about you shut your fucking mouth and go write something? If you keep bitching about how you'll never be a great writer, then just fuck off, already. You're creating a self-fulfilling prophecy. Wallace didn't start until he was 21. This alone disproves the whole meme of how "if you don't do it as a kid, you'll never be good."

Read the work he had published while at amherst, you'll be more confident afterward. On the other hand though, your father most likely isn't a Wittgenstein scholar and your mother most likely hasnt published a book on grammar, so I feel you. But also, DeLillo grew up with immigrants in the bronx and wrote a novel that made DFW feel "dumb and humbled". So it's all relative, work harder newfag

Minority is right.

So certain cercles ridiculize others and their voice is predominant.

She isn't laughed at for the advocation of individual rights, she's laughed at because she created "objectivism" purely as a justification for Social Darwinism. It's a disingenuous attempt to subvert criticism.

Kierkegaard was right about everything.
Either/Or should have been read by everyone before they've even learned to read.
It's that good.

The Diapsalmata gives the best diagnosis of human worth.
Silhouettes is the best description of how sadness varies.
Just to tell. The Aesthetic, Ethic, and Religious... wow!

Want to get into him, where do I start?
I'm not well versed with real philosophy either, should I become familiar with others first? I remember some chart that said Hegel was essential to getting Kierkegaard. If so where to start with him?
>>
>>9118406
Sure, you'd need a knowledge of Hegelian terms, but just pick up a copy of Either/Or and start reading. You'll see how much of a father he really is.

I can't wait to really start reading Kierkegaard. Every time I see some excerpt from him or a summary of one of his ideas, I get more excited.
